RestQring Files tQ YQur Hard Disk
If you want to restore an earlier version of a file
from floppy disk to your hard disk, use the Disk
RestQre selection from the Administration menu of any
user login. You can use only those floppy disks
created with the backup procedure to restore files to
your hard disk.
The type of backup floppy disks you use is determined
by the types of files you want to restore. For
example, if you want to restore only files in one user
area, use the files on a user backup floppy disk; if
you want to restore recently modified files, use the
files from the last partial backup set; and if you want
to restore all your files, start with the Foundation
Set, followed by your last complete backup floppy set,
and then the latest partial backup set.
Realize, of course, that the changes made ~ your
last backup are not stored on the floppy disks; they
cannot be recovered from backup files.
RestQre Types
Restore methods are of four types:
o RESTORE All
o RESTORE by UNIX Name
o
SHOW and RESTORE Folders
o SHOW and RESTORE Files
NQte
The SHOW and RESTORE FQlders selection
does not restore the Phone Directory
files (which contains your directory
entries if you have Telephone Manager
software installed). To restore the
Phone Directory file, use RESTORE Allor
SHOW and RESTORE Files.
